I’ve not talked about this much but I’ve started working out again. While I really, really want a treadmill, I’m making do with some free weights and a set of BowFlex kettlebells.

I forgot to share a really positive moment from yesterday. My brain isn’t firing on all cylinders at the moment. So please forgive me. Mr. Emmett really, really, really likes watching Bob’s Burgers. I enjoy Bob’s Burgers as well but not so much that I can watch it nonstop. I was trying to get Emmett …
